Thord Daniel Hedengren is addicted to words, and the stories they make. He writes fiction, short and long, as well as freelance articles and columns for various media outlets. He’s a renowned web developer and designer, and the author of Smashing WordPress: Beyond the Blog and The Writer's iPad, among other techy things. You’ll find him wasting away on Twitter as @tdh, or writing about just about anything at TDH.me. Thord lives in Sweden, the Land of Kings.

We believe that you shouldn’t talk about products and plans until they’re just around the corner. Announcements are a tricky and dangerous game, and doubly so when they’re made in a business like this. Delayed games are annoying, and we’ll do our best to avoid delaying anything by shutting up until we’ve got something to share.

That said, being quiet and hidden from the world, not sharing what’s going on, isn’t exactly the best way to do things either. So with that in mind, here’s our plans for 2015, without making any hard promises. We’re still in the early startup phase after all, and we hope you’ll understand.

Back in 2002, Alltid Attack Förlag published horror role-playing game Splatter, written by Thord D. Hedengren, and illustrated by Axel Widén. It was a fun project, and a tight little game of 100 pages in A5 format. All in Swedish of course, and all sold out.

ARK is the role-playing game that wasn’t. It still isn’t, to be fair. ARK as we wanted to make it won’t be made, despite a manuscript resurfaced.

The ARK storyline is an old one outlined more than a decade ago by yours truly, not meant to be a role-playing game to begin with. The concept evolved, the idea of an episodic science fiction role-playing game took hold, and we went with it. Then we shelved it all in 2006, after a devastating crash, but the story continued to develop and the world evolved with it.

We’re a small independent imprint that publishes role-playing games, mostly. Once upon a time we only published games and books in Swedish, under the Alltid Attack Förlag imprint, but now we’ve decided to unify our creations under one roof, no matter the language. Read more here.
